No, I really hope he's doing fine.

I'm fine, thanks for asking -- wickedly busy. I need to be preparing
for a trial, and I've been side-tracked with putting out endless fires for clients.

I was defending my mansion with a pressure washer last night, cleaning
my front porch. The invading hoards have not made it to my
neighborhood, but when they do -- I'll put on the red sprayer head and
hit them with some soap. My wife will glower at them -- more powerful than a 12g shotgun.

Working from home is driving me crazy with finding time to ride during
the week. I'll do fast lunch rides with my neighbor when we have time
or a trip into the hills after work, but frequency is down. I miss the
regularity of commuting.

You still have to work from home? I couldn't stand it after just one week
and made me reconsider my early retirement. Fortunately the situation
improved soon so the enjoyment in my work returned and I'm not forced
into early retirement.

I had to retire and come back on contract just so that I COULD work from
home, then COVID came along and now all my co-workers are also working from
home. I’d like a refund, please :-)

Ha, than we are different. Is there a reason you want to work from home?

Lou

The last job I had was mostly programming. The place where we worked out of was the home of the project manager. He couldn't work without MSDNC on 24 hours a day. It was just background noise to him but it drove me crazy and I couldn't work in those conditions so I stayed home and tripled my output. Most of the other places I worked I could not stay home because I had to oversee every part of a project.

Yes. I moved to a town with better weather, and now it takes 3 1/2 hours to
drive to the office. The company has an office 5 minutes from my new home,
but they were adamant that all Engineering employees had to work out of the
other building. I had 31+ years of seniority and met the retirement
criteria, so I retired and came back in contract.

Right?

The big mystery is why Barron doesn't have a job in the administration -
yet.

Tell us what jobs that those four have.
I think Ivanka is there to decorate cabinet level meetings, and pitch
Goya products. Jared is there for his internationally acclaimed
diplomatic and managerial experience. (Hah!) I think Donnie and Eric are
there as jesters, to distract from the jester-in-chief. But that's not
working.

You cannot go a minute without bull**** coming out of every orifice can you? To you its admirable that 100 people are shot in a weekend in cities with stray bullets going through walls and killing a 1 year old baby. To some son of a bitch like you no number if dead bodies in Democrat strongholds is enough to keep you from badmouthing Trump. Jay is leaving Oregon but it is because of the taxes and not because of the rioting, looting and murders. That's all in a days work for a Democrat. Then he tells us that he rode down there and that FOX was lying about the rioting even though they have full film of it. Democrats in action anywhere and everywhere. Gavin Newsom believes that California should count the illegals in assigning the number of representatives to Congress.

Your arguments sound surprisingly similar to those of the National
Socialists in 1933. What's next? The announcement that the country was
in danger from the democrats during the election campaign. Federal
troops dispatched to the States? The Enabling Act? and finally Der
Führer?

Ah, Tom. You have _so_ much trouble following a conversation.

Why did you jump from Trump's nepotism to crazily claiming I don't care
about dead babies? That's just weird.

More of your education moron? Nepotism has a definition - it means "partiality". Obviously you have no children so you don't know what that would mean.. And by the way - His children accept NO gratuities in any way from the government. They have no need of money. President Trump donates his entire salary to charity. Doesn't that just toast your brain that he gives away more money in a year than you will have made over your teaching lifetime? And with sons of bitches like you stabbing him in the back for a very simple reason - he beat Hillary because she proclaimed those with lesser educations - the people that actually make this country run - as "deplorables" and you loved the idea of being superior despite the fact that you have shown in a million ways that you don't even know your own subject.

The real sin of President Trump is that he doesn't favor the highly educated - he favors people who accomplish things. The High Tech industry in California is now falling apart because they can't find anyone with a PhD that can do anything. In some cases they are falling to the depths of accepting someone with a Masters who then expects to be treated like royalty. The perfect example of those who supported Hillary's belief in "deplorables" Coming soon to a town near you - gunfights on the streets by your leftists pals who could not care less about 100 black people being shot by other black people while they use the excuse of George Floyd.

Why don't you give us the same bull**** as Jay, that FOX was lying about the riots when they provided the video of it occurring? We have no fear though, the left always eats its own and you will be the target of one of them sooner or later.

Frank, you are the very definition of human trash. And some other leftist is going to take out the garbage.

The thermometer of success is merely the jealousy of the malcontents. : Salvador Dali.

Oddly, the person bragging about a million dollar net worth is the
foremost malcontent in this discussion group.

Malcontent about the price of groceries, the terrible neighborhood he
lives in, the hundreds of foolish employers who refuse to give him a
job, the communists who have been ruining America for decades, the
terrible quality of discount no-name Chinese bike parts, the deadly
low-hanging tree branches, the horrible complexity of electronic
shifters, and so much more.

So exactly why do you need social security then?

Oh, wait, that's right - you think that is a
socialist program.

If it is paid for by the community, then it is socialist.

Over here, someone earning similar independent income, would not get
'social security' aka od age pension and they would be thought to be
defauding the government if they were.
